I'll let you know I started out in 2001 listening to SACD utilizing the Sony 9000ES SACD/DVD player. It was a vast upgrade from the NAD CD player and the current DVD player I was utilizing at the time so I was killing two birds with the stone.I then found myself becoming more the music listener fanatic than a HT movie watcher. I sold the Sony 9000ES, picked up the Sony XA777ES and bought a cheaper DVD player.
All well and good but my CD collection far outweighed my SACD collection. The sound of redbook on the XA777Es was quite good and also I my became quite interested in classical music which lead me to the 1000s of CD recordings available for that genre.
I basically abandoned SACD for about a year or so I would say except perhaps for some of the LS recordings. I started listening to some of those in three channel and by picking up some recommendations here for other classical SACDs which had a good multichannel track. It has rekindled the fever I first had with the SACD format. I'll add I only have a Denon AVR3803 which goes for about a grand. I'm not looking to downgrade my system whatsoever. Rather recently, I upgraded all my speakers. Next, it will be the amp to hear that much more from these wonderful MCH classical recordings!!
